Ingredients

For the Biscuits:

  • 1 can of biscuits – Use your favorite brand of refrigerated biscuit dough.

For the Sausage Gravy:

  • 1 package of sausage gravy mix – Or make your own homemade sausage gravy (recipe below).
  • 2 cups milk (if using a packaged mix).

For the Filling:

  • Sausage patties – Cooked in the air fryer or on the stovetop (1 per biscuit).
  • Shredded cheese – Cheddar or your favorite blend.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Bake the Biscuits:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and arrange the biscuits evenly on the pan.
  3. Bake the biscuits according to the package instructions, usually about 10–14 minutes, until golden brown.

2. Cook the Sausage Patties:

  • Air fryer method: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F. Cook the sausage patties for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Stovetop method: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the sausage patties until browned and cooked through, about 3–4 minutes per side.

3. Prepare the Sausage Gravy:

  • If using a packaged mix:
    1. Follow the instructions on the package, usually whisking the mix with 2 cups of milk and cooking over medium heat until thickened.
  • For homemade gravy (optional):
    • Cook 1/2 pound ground sausage in a skillet until browned.
    • Stir in 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute.
    • Gradually add 1 1/2 cups milk, stirring constantly, until the gravy thickens.
    • Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

4. Assemble the Biscuits:

  1. Slice each biscuit in half horizontally.
  2. Place a cooked sausage patty on the bottom half of each biscuit.
  3. Sprinkle a little shredded cheese on top of the sausage.
  4. Replace the top half of the biscuit.

5. Finish with Gravy and Cheese:

  1. Ladle sausage gravy generously over the assembled biscuits.
  2. Sprinkle more shredded cheese on top for a gooey, melty finish.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

  • Serve immediately while warm. Add a side of scrambled eggs or fresh fruit for a complete breakfast.

Pro Tips:

  • Customizing Sausage Gravy: For added flavor, mix in a pinch of cayenne, paprika, or thyme.
  • Cheese Choices: Swap out cheddar for mozzarella, pepper jack, or gouda for a twist.
  • Make-Ahead Option: Prepare the sausage patties and gravy ahead of time and reheat when ready to assemble.

This easy recipe is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser, whether you’re feeding your family or hosting a brunch. The combination of flaky biscuits, savory sausage, and creamy gravy is a Southern classic that never disappoints! 🥞✨
